Ebell Bazaar Date Changed To Nov. 18 Stressing the importance of contributions donations to the fall Bazaar that will be held at the Ebell club house on November 18 Juvenile Problems Told To Business Women's Meeting Stressing the need for churches and other character building organizations to take the lead in trying to keep down the mounting juvenile delinquency problem, Superior Court Judge Franklin G. West of Santa Ana spoke last Thursday evening at the regular bi-monthly dinner meeting of the Business and Professional Women's club that was held at the White Temple Methodist church. Miss Alice Williamson, president, presided at the meeting. Judge West said that an ever increasing rise in juvenile delinquency in Orange Co., was partly due to the increase in population, but mostly due to the strain of wartime living and the increase in broken homes. He pointed out that a broken home was usually the reason behind a minor's delinquency. He said that in 1940 there were no court cases of under-age boys being brought up for drunkenness while there would be at least 35 cases by the end of this year, and that most of the boys are under sixteen. The speaker was introduced by Mrs. Eva Boyd who, with Mrs. Mary Heinlein, was responsible for the table decorations that carried out the Hallowe'en motif.

Mrs. Cranston was also the recipient of a pretty corsage. As Miss Brown sang solo after solo her friends were greatly impressed by the fine manner in which she handled her voice, its range and clear diction.
